It should be noted that, according to characteristics of the transistors, the transistors may be divided into N-type transistors and P-type transistors, and for clarity, the embodiments of the present disclosure detail the technical solutions of the present disclosure by taking the transistors being P-type transistors (for example, P-type MOS transistors) as an example. However, the transistors in the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to P-type transistors, and one skilled in the art may also implement the functions of one or more transistors in the embodiments of the present disclosure by using N-type transistors (e.g., N-type MOS transistors) according to actual needs.

In addition, the transistors used in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be thin film transistors or field effect transistors or other switching devices having the same characteristics, and the thin film transistors may include oxide semiconductor thin film transistors, amorphous silicon thin film transistors or polysilicon thin film transistors, and the like. For each transistor, it includes a first electrode, a second electrode and a control electrode; the control electrode is used as a gate of the transistor, one of the first electrode and the second electrode is used as a source of the transistor, and the other one is used as a drain of the transistor; the source and drain of the transistor may be symmetrical in structure, so that there may be no difference in physical structure therebetween. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, in order to distinguish transistors, except for a gate serving as the control electrode, the first electrode is directly described as the source, and the second electrode is directly described as the drain, so that the source and the drain of all or part of the transistors in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be interchanged as necessary. For convenience of explanation, the first electrode, the second electrode, and the control electrode of the transistor being the source, the drain, and the gate, respectively, is taken as an example for explanation.

In a first aspect, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a pixel driving structure, which may be applied to a display panel, and referring to FIG. 3, taking a display panel 101 as an example, the display panel 101 may include a substrate 20, and a plurality of pixel units 10 arranged in an array on the substrate 20, each pixel unit 10 includes a plurality of sub-pixels 100, and each sub-pixel 100 has a light emitting device E and a pixel driving structure, and the pixel driving structure is configured to drive the light emitting device E to emit light. Referring to FIG. 1, the pixel driving structure provided in this embodiment includes a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) driving circuit 001, a Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM) driving circuit 002, and a buffer circuit 003.

Specifically, the buffer circuit 003 is electrically coupled between the PWM driving circuit 001 and the PAM driving circuit 002, the PAM driving circuit 002 is coupled to the light emitting device E, and the pixel driving structure may perform pulse amplitude modulation and pulse width modulation driving on the light emitting device in order to control the color gradation of light emitted from the light emitting device E. The light emitting device E may emit light with different luminance according to the magnitude or pulse width of the driving current supplied from the pixel driving structure. Here, the pulse width of the driving current may be represented by a duty ratio of the driving current or a duration of the driving current.

In a case where the light emitting device E is driven only by the PAM driving method, the luminance performance of the light emitting device E at a low gray scale is poor, and thus the PWM driving method may be introduced to provide a certain amount of driving current to the light emitting device E and control the time duration of light emitting, so that the luminance performance of the light emitting device E at the low gray scale can be improved. The larger the magnitude of the driving current is, the higher the light emitting luminance of the light emitting device E is, and the larger the pulse width is (i.e., the higher the duty ratio or the longer the duration is), the higher the light emitting luminance of the light emitting device E is, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The PWM driving circuit 001 is configured to control the pulse width of the driving current supplied to the light emitting device E to be driven according to the pulse width modulation data voltage Data_W, the PAM driving circuit 002 is configured to control the amplitude of the driving current supplied to the light emitting device E to be driven according to the pulse amplitude modulation data voltage Data_A, that is, the pulse width of the driving current finally used by the PAM driving circuit 002 to drive the light emitting device E is identical to the pulse width of the pulse width modulation data voltage Data_W received by the PWM driving circuit 001, and the amplitude of the driving current output by the PAM driving circuit 002 to the light emitting device E is identical to the amplitude of the pulse amplitude modulation data voltage Data_A received by the PAM driving circuit 002.

Further, the PWM driving circuit 001 outputs a pulse width modulation voltage to the PAM driving circuit 002 according to the pulse width modulation data voltage Data_W, and the PAM driving circuit 002 outputs a driving current related to the pulse amplitude modulation data voltage Data_A to the light emitting device E under the control of the pulse width modulation voltage. The buffer circuit 003 is coupled between the PWM driving circuit 001 and the PAM driving circuit 002, and the buffer circuit 003 is used to adjust a rate at which the PWM driving circuit 001 applies the pulse width modulation voltage to the PAM driving circuit 002.

The PAM driving circuit 002 has a first driving transistor M3, a source of the first driving transistor M3 is coupled to a first power voltage terminal to receive a first power voltage VDD, and a pulse width modulation voltage output by the PWM driving circuit 001 is applied to a gate of the first driving transistor M3, and if a rate of applying the pulse width modulation voltage from the PWM driving circuit 001 to the gate of the first driving transistor M3 is too fast, a gate voltage of the first driving transistor M3 is caused to rise fast, so that a voltage difference between the gate and the source of the first driving transistor M3 is insufficient, and the first driving transistor M3 is turned off quickly, so that it is difficult to control luminance of the light emitting device E by the first driving transistor M3 accurately. For the pixel driving structure provided by the embodiment, because the buffer circuit 003 is arranged between the PWM driving circuit 001 and the PAM driving circuit 002, the buffer circuit 003 can adjust the rate of applying the pulse width modulation voltage from the PWM driving circuit 001 to the PAM driving circuit 002, so that the situation that the first driving transistor M3 in the PAM driving circuit 002 is turned off due to the excessively fast speed of applying the pulse width modulation voltage from the PWM driving circuit 001 to the PAM driving circuit 002, which leads to difficulty in accurately controlling the luminance of the light emitting device E, can be avoided.

Further, with continued reference to FIG. 1, the PAM driving circuit 002 includes the first driving transistor M3 described above, and may further include a first storage capacitor C1. A first electrode of the first storage capacitor C1 is electrically coupled to the first power voltage terminal, the first power voltage terminal is used for providing the first power voltage VDD, and a second electrode of the first storage capacitor C1 is electrically coupled to the gate of the first driving transistor M3.

In the pixel driving structure provided in this embodiment, the buffer circuit 003 includes a second storage capacitor C2, a first electrode of the second storage capacitor C2 is electrically coupled to the PWM driving circuit 001, a second electrode of the second storage capacitor C2 is electrically coupled to the gate of the first driving transistor M3 of the PAM driving circuit 002, and the second electrode of the second storage capacitor C2 is further coupled to the second electrode of the first storage capacitor C1. Certainly, the buffer circuit 003 is not limited to including only the second storage capacitor C2.

According to the above, the first electrode of the second storage capacitor C2 receives the pulse width modulation voltage inputted from the PWM driving circuit 001, and slowly transmits the pulse width modulation voltage to the gate of the first driving transistor M3, so as to ensure that the first driving transistor M3 is stably turned on during a light emitting stage, thereby accurately controlling the light emitting device E.

Specifically, when the buffer circuit 003 including the second storage capacitor C2 is not provided, a voltage of a gate node PAM_Dnode changes instantaneously with the pulse width modulation voltage; and the magnitude of the driving current for driving the light emitting device E to emit light satisfies the equation I=β(Vgs−Vth)², where,

${\beta = {\frac{1}{2}\mu_{n}{C_{ox}\left( \frac{W}{L} \right)}}},$

μ_(n) is an electron mobility of the first driving transistor M3, C_(ox) is an insulating capacitance per unit area, and

$\frac{W}{L}$

is an aspect ratio of the first driving transistor M3. Ideally, in the light emitting stage of the light emitting device E, the amplitude of the received driving current should be stable and constant, and if the voltage of the gate node PAM_Dnode changes in the light emitting stage, the voltage difference between the gate and the source of the first driving transistor M3 may change, which may further cause the state of the first driving transistor M3 being turned on to be unstable, that is, the time duration of the first driving transistor M3 being turned on is insufficient, so that it is difficult to accurately control the light emitting device E. In some cases, the capacitance of the first storage capacitor C1 may be designed to be larger to stabilize the voltage of the gate node PAM_Dnode during the light emitting stage. However, for example, the capacitance of the first storage capacitor C1 needs to reach 200p to achieve the desired effect, and it takes a large space of the display panel for the design.

In the embodiment provided by the present application, by providing the buffer circuit 003 including the second storage capacitance C2, and adjusting a ratio of capacitances of the first storage capacitors C1 and the second storage capacitor C2, the voltage of the gate node PAM_Dnode can be adjusted, the gate node PAM_Dnode is a connection node between the second electrode of the first storage capacitor C1, the second electrode of the second storage capacitor C2, and the gate of the first driving transistor M3, and the gate node PAM_Dnode determines the gate voltage of the first driving transistor M3, thus ensuring the voltage of the gate node PAM_Dnode to be stable enables the driving current output by the first driving transistor M3 to be stable, further, the light emitting luminance of the light emitting device E is controlled, so that gray scale display can be more accurate, and the influence of the pulse width modulation voltage output by the PWM driving circuit 001 on the voltage of the gate node PAM_Dnode can be reduced by adjusting the capacitance of the second storage capacitor C2. For example, the second storage capacitor C2 is mainly affected by the pulse width modulation voltage output by the PWM driving circuit 001 according to the pulse width modulation data voltage Data_W, and if the capacitance of the second storage capacitor C2 is relatively larger than that of the first storage capacitor C1, the pulse width modulation data voltage Data_W has a larger influence on the driving current of the first driving transistor M3. Specifically, the ratio of the capacitance of the first storage capacitor C1 to the capacitance of the second storage capacitor C2 may be between 1:1 and 2:1, which is not limited herein. The voltage of the gate node PAM_Dnode is adjusted by adjusting the ratio of the capacitance of the first storage capacitor C1 to the capacitance of the second storage capacitor C2, so that the influence of the driving current output by the first driving transistor M3 on the light emitting device E can be adjusted, and the gray scale display of the light emitting device E is more accurate. In addition, in a light emitting control stage, a sweep frequency signal Vsweep for controlling the light emitting time duration of the light emitting device E is loaded to the second storage capacitor C2 by the PWM driving circuit 001, and then the second storage capacitor C2 slowly transfers the sweep frequency signal Vsweep to the gate node PAM_Dnode of the first driving transistor M3, so that the light emitting time duration of the light emitting device E can be controlled in the light emitting control stage by adjusting the capacitance of the second storage capacitor C2, and the control of the light emitting time duration is more accurate, and the detailed contents of the light emitting control stage will be described later.

Further, when the sweep signal Vsweep is 0, the voltage Vpam of the gate node PAM_Dnode satisfies:

${{Vpam} = {\frac{C\; 1}{{C1} + {C2}} \times {VDD}}},$

where, C1 is the capacitance of the first storage capacitor, C2 is the capacitance of the second storage capacitor, and VDD is the voltage value of the first power voltage outputted from the first power voltage terminal.

According to the capacitance formula C=ε×ε₀×S/d; ε is a dielectric constant of material of an insulating layer of the capacitor, ε₀ is a vacuum dielectric constant, S is an area of the capacitor, and d is a thickness of the insulating layer of the capacitor. Therefore, the capacitance of the first storage capacitor C1 or the second storage capacitor C2 can be determined by adjusting ε

In order to make the implementation of the pixel circuit in this embodiment clearer, an operation process of the pixel circuit is described with reference to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2. The timing chart of FIG. 2 includes three stages, i.e., a T1 stage (shown as {circle around (1)}), a T2 stage (shown as {circle around (2)}), and a T3 stage (shown as {circle around (3)}), and FIG. 2 illustrates timings of the first power voltage VDD, the second power voltage VSS, the pulse width modulation data voltage Data_W, the pulse amplitude modulation data voltage Data_A, the initialization signal Vinit, the sweep frequency signal Vsweep, the light emitting control signal EM, the reset control signal G_rst, the width modulation scan signal Gate_W, and the amplitude modulation scan signal Gate_A in the three stages.

In the stage T1, that is, the reset stage (or an initialization stage), the reset control signal G_rst is written into the reset signal terminal, the reset control signal G_rst being a low-level signal, the first reset transistor M1 and the second reset transistor M2 in the PAM driving circuit 002 are turned on, and the initialization signal Vinit is written into the gate of the first driving transistor M3 and the first electrode of the light emitting device E to be driven, thereby resetting the gate of the first driving transistor M3 and the first electrode of the light emitting device E to be driven. In such case, the third reset transistor M9 and the fourth reset transistor M8 in the PWM driving circuit 001 are also turned on, and the initialization signal Vinit is written into the gate of the second driving transistor M14 and the first electrode of the second storage capacitor C2 of the buffer circuit 003, and the gate of the second driving transistor M14 and the first electrode of the second storage capacitor C2 are reset.

In the stage T2, that is, a data writing and threshold voltage extracting stage, the amplitude modulation scan signal Gate_A is written into the amplitude modulation scan signal line, the width modulation scan signal Gate_W is written into the width modulation scan signal line, the amplitude modulation scan signal Gate_A and the width modulation scan signal Gate_W are low-level signals, in response to the amplitude modulation scan signal Gate_A, the first data writing transistor M5 and the first threshold compensation transistor M4 in the PAM driving circuit 002 are turned on, and since the first threshold compensation transistor M4 is turned on, the threshold compensation is performed on the voltages of the gate and the drain of the first driving transistor M3, so that the voltage of the gate node PAM_Dnode of the first driving transistor M3 is equal to the voltage of the drain node N2 of the first driving transistor M3. Meanwhile, the pulse amplitude modulation data line writes the pulse amplitude modulation data voltage Data_A into the source node N1 of the first driving transistor M3 through the first data writing transistor M5, and the voltage of the gate node PAM_Dnode of the first driving transistor M3 is VDD-Data_A (i.e., PAM_data in FIG. 2). Similarly, in response to the width modulation scan signal Gate_W, the second data writing transistor M10 and the second threshold compensation transistor M11 in the PWM driving circuit 001 are turned on, and since the second threshold compensation transistor M11 is turned on, the threshold compensation is performed on the voltages of the gate and the drain of the second driving transistor M14, so that the voltage of the gate node PWM_Dnode (i.e., the second node) of the second driving transistor M14 is equal to the voltage of the drain node N4 of the second driving transistor M14. Meanwhile, the pulse width modulation data line writes the pulse width modulation data voltage Data_W into the source node N3 of the second driving transistor M14 through the second data writing transistor M10, and the voltage of the gate node PWM_Dnode of the second driving transistor M14 is (VDD-PWM_data). It should be noted that, since the data voltages Data_W and Data_A each are not a fixed voltage value in the stage T2, that is, the data voltages written at different times may be not the same, they are represented by rectangles in FIG. 2, that is, the data voltages Data_W and Data_A may range from a high level to a low level.

In the stage T3, that is, the light emitting stage, the light emitting control signal EM is written into the light emitting control signal terminal, the light emitting control signal is a low-level signal, the first light emitting control transistor M6 and the second light emitting control transistor M7 in the PAM driving circuit 002 are turned on, the third light emitting control transistor M12 and the fourth light emitting control transistor M15 in the PWM driving circuit 001 are turned on, the pulse width modulation voltage output by the PWM driving circuit 001 is applied to the gate node PAM_Dnode of the first driving transistor M3 of the PAM driving circuit 002, and the first driving transistor M3 outputs a driving current to the light emitting device E through the second light emitting control transistor M7 according to the pulse width modulation voltage and the pulse amplitude modulation voltage to drive the light emitting device E to emit light. Meanwhile, the voltage of the sweep frequency signal Vsweep loaded at the source of the third light emitting control transistor M12 of the PWM driving signal 001 is slowly increased, the sweep frequency signal Vsweep is loaded to the second storage capacitor C2 through the third light emitting control transistor M12, the second driving transistor M14 and the fourth light emitting control transistor M15, the second storage capacitor C2 gradually transfers the voltage to the gate node PAM_Dnode of the first driving transistor M3, and the rate of applying the voltage from the second storage capacitor C2 to the gate node PAM_Dnode of the first driving transistor M3 can be adjusted by adjusting the capacitance of the second storage capacitor C2, so that the voltage of the gate node PAM_Dnode is slowly increased, and the first driving transistor M3 coupled to the gate node PAM_Dnode is prevented from being turned off due to the voltage of the gate node PAM_Dnode being abruptly increased. As the sweep frequency signal Vsweep slowly increases, the voltage of the gate node PAM_Dnode also slowly increases, and when the voltage of the gate node PAM_Dnode increases to be equal to the voltage of the source node N1, the first driving transistor M3 is turned off, so that the light emitting device E stops emitting light, that is, the sweep frequency signal Vsweep can slowly increase to turn off the first driving transistor M3, and the second storage capacitor C2 can adjust the rate at which the voltage applied by the sweep signal Vsweep is transmitted to the gate node PAM_Dnode, and the time of the first driving transistor M3 to be turned off can be accurately controlled by the sweep frequency signal Vsweep and the second storage capacitor C2, so that the light emitting time duration of the light emitting device E can be controlled.

It is understood that the sweep frequency signal Vsweep is a voltage signal that changes with time, for example, the voltage value gradually increases with time, or the voltage first increases and then decreases with time, and specifically, may be a ramp signal or a triangular wave or sawtooth wave signal. Further, by designing the slope of the sweep frequency signal Vsweep, the light emitting device E can be controlled to achieve different light emitting time durations.

In summary, the pixel driving structure is realized in which the pulse width of the driving current is modulated by the PWM driving circuit 001 and the amplitude of the driving current is modulated by the PAM driving circuit 002 to control the driving current of the light emitting device E in the light emitting stage. In some examples, if it is only necessary to drive the light emitting device E with the PAM driving circuit 002, the voltage value of the pulse width modulation data voltage Data_W inputted to the second data writing transistor M10 of the PWM driving circuit 001 may be made to be equal (or approximately equal) to the voltage value input to the gate node PWM_Dnode of the second driving transistor M14, taking the pixel driving structure of FIG. 1 as an example, that is, the voltage value of the pulse width modulation data voltage Data_W may be made to be equal to (or approximately equal to) VDD, since the second data writing transistor M10 writes the pulse width modulated data voltage Data_W into the source node N3 of the second driving transistor M14, thereby the voltage of the gate of the second driving transistor M14 is equal (or approximately equal) to the voltage of the source of the second driving transistor M14, further, the second driving transistor M14 is turned off, so the voltage of the gate node PAM_Dnode of the first driving transistor M3 is not affected by the sweep frequency signal Vsweep at all, and the light emitting device E emits light only according to the driving current of the PAM driving circuit 002.
